List of bacterial strains with proven antimicrobial properties

Bacterial strain Antimicrobial effect Reference
Lactobacillus brevis 925A Brevicin 925A has antimicrobial effect against Listeria monocytogenes and Streptococcus mutans [77]
Lactobacillus fermentum CS57 In vitro antimicrobial activity against Streptococcus agalactiae and Candida albicans (vaginal ecosystem)
Bacteriocin-like substance as antimicrobial molecule
[67]
Lactobacillus johnsonii NCC 533
(previously Lactobacillus acidophilus LA1)
Spent culture supernatant from LA1 contains antimicrobial components that reduce the amount on Salmonella typhimurium in vivo (murine models of infections) and in vitro (Caco-2 model) [6, 44]
Antimicrobial activity by LjNCC533 associated to lactic acid and hydrogen peroxide production [2]
Lactobacillus salivarius UCC118 and DPC6488 Secretion of the Abp118 bacteriocin with antimicrobial activity against the Listeria monocytogenes in vivo model (rodents)
Lactobacillus salivarius DPC6488: secretion of two bacteriocins (salivaricin L and T) with analogies with Abp118 (see reference for details)
[19, 24]
Lactobacillus plantarum G1 and G3 Bacteriocin-like activity identified and characterized with antimicrobial properties (for specificity see reference)
Potential probiotics: high vitality in the GIT, no toxicity (safety), improved lipid metabolism, and hepatic function
[82]
